Underwater video and high-resolution still photographs were collected using the
Southwest Fisheries Science Center’s remotely operated vehicle
(or ROV). Several of these photos are being used to describe a new species of fishes, while others are being used to improve the description of
species of fishes and invertebrates that are rarely observed in the wild. View some of these photos and ‘fly-along’ with the researchers in
your browser by clicking on one of the five virtual tours below. Toggle the boxes above the map to turn various
features on and off. Zoom in on the map and click on individual photos to see larger images and additional information. Or, download the
data to view externally in Google Earth.
